    The historic context in which Romania’s steps regarding the assent into the communitarian structures are joined, can be placed under the sign of profound changes who interfered in the Romanian society after 1989 such as: the building of a democratic society and the instauration of a market economy, and also under the sign of a contradictory defiance among the European Union. Romania is the first central and eastern European country who established official relationships with the European Community.

    Assessment of the reservoir sedimentation rates from 137 Cs measurements in the Moldavian Plateau

    Reservoir sedimentation has been recognized as an important environmental threat in the Moldavian Plateau of Eastern Romania. Measurements of the 137Cs content of reservoir and, sometimes, floodplain sediments have been used to estimate the rate of sedimentation over the past 13-36 years . The estimated mean sediment accumulation rates in the reservoirs from three geomorphological subunits vary between 2.6 and 7.9 cm/year with an average rate of 4.6 cm/year after April 1986. Strong relationships were established between the individual sedimentation rates and the drainage area within the southern and central part of the Moldavian Plateau. The shape of the 137Cs depth profile was used as the main approach. Taking into account that the standard pattern is in the form of a cantilever and based on burial magnitude of 137Cs peak derived from Chernobyl two chief patterns of reservoir sedimentation were identified, shallow and deep buried cantilever, respectively

    Is Homocysteine a Marker or a Risk Factor: A Question Still Waits for an Answer

    Get PDF
    Homocysteine, a non-proteinogenic sulfur-containing amino acid, was discovered in 1932, and 30 years passed until, in 1969, for the first time, its involvement in pathology was reported. It was only in the last two decades that homocysteine has become a subject of scientific interest and has begun to be intensively studied. A large number of scientists consider homocysteine as an independent risk factor particularly for cardiovascular disease, while others indicate homocysteine as a marker of this disease. Both sides bring scientific arguments for their opinions, yet the dilemma of homocysteine characterization still persists. Although the reported studies do not lead to a unique answer, it is generally accepted that homocysteine is associated with vascular dysfunction. Numerous scientific data show that the link between homocysteine and inflammation is achieved via the reactive oxygen species (ROS) pathway. The latest data indicate hydrogen peroxide as a possible messenger in cellular signaling in physiological or pathological processes and present the consequences of disturbing the oxidation-reducing balance. In this chapter, we present the latest scientific evidences gathered from the literature for both hypotheses regarding homocysteine involvement in pathology, and we propose a possible mechanism of action for homocysteine, based on our preliminary (yet unpublished) work

    COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF PERIODONTAL STATUS IN HEMODYALYSIS PATIENTS – A CLINICAL APPROACH

    Both periodontal disease and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are inflammatory disorders that considerably affect the patients’ overall health and life quality. Periodontal disease occurs somehow more often in CKD people, but it remains indeterminate whether periodontal disease is an independent risk factor in this population or what the true nature of their relationship is. Objectives. Our study focused on investigating the relationship between CKD and periodontitis, and the influence of the latter’s presence and severity on the former, through evaluation of the periodontal status in predialysis and dialysis CKD and healthy subjects with periodontitis. Materials and method. The patients included in our study were divided in two groups, study (n=59) with end-stage CKD and periodontitis, and control (n=20), with periodontitis but without renal impairment. All the subjects underwent dental and periodontal evaluation, using parameters common in clinical examination (Periodontal Disease Index –PDI, dental mobility, bleeding on probing – BOP, inflammatory hyperplasia, gingival recession, probing depth – PD and clinical attachment loss – CAL). Both groups also answered questions about their meal plan and oral hygiene habits and their access to dental care. Results. There were visible differences between the groups when considering social and economic status and access to dental and periodontal services, which is relevant for the distribution of periodontal disease severity between groups (56% from the study group had severe periodontitis, with only 10% in the control group). The study group also had more missing teeth, deeper periodontal pockets and more signs of inflammation. It is still unclear if this is due only to low social and economic status or is it a consequence of CKD and hemodialysis. Conclusions. There is a link between the two entities, but it is still unclear if this is due just to the pathophysiology of periodontitis and CKD, or are the external and local factors involved. Further investigation is needed to clarify this issue and to be able to produce viable prevention and treatment programs for people with end-stage CKD

    The impact of an intensive educational program regarding candidiasis in pregnancyon health professionals knowledge at Clinical Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology ”Elena Doamna” in Iași, Romania. The study was designed in three phases: Assessment phase, Implementation phase and Evaluation phase. The study was conducted from early January to the end of December 2019. The result of the study shows that its most frequent location is in the mouth and the vagina. The symptoms are reduced and the diagnosis is based on the clinical examination, the confirmation being performed by microscopic examination. Prophylactic treatment of candidiasis involves maintaining a rigorous hygiene, avoiding excessive and unprotected use of antibiotics and increasing the body's immunity through a balanced diet and through the intake of mineral salts and vitamins

    The quality of life is in to the close relationship with maintenance of oral health, part of general health which is affected or which influence, having in the end, a great impact on mental condition and integration. The aim of our study was to establish the main criteria for the choice of partially movable prostheses in geriatric patients in a systemic context. Material and method.The study was conducted on a group of 60 geriatric patients diagnosed with various forms of general pathology corroborated with various edentational forms presented on the basis of the Clinic of , Iasi. Education of the Faculty of Dental MedicineAll patients underwent a complex clinical examination , supported by paraclinical assessments. which allowed the establishment of a biological balance sheet.Results and discussions Following the subjective clinical examination (anamnesis and questionnaire), we identified 34% of cases with diabetes, 36% with cardiovascular pathology, 9% with respiratory pathology (COPD and Asthma), 10 % of cases with diabetes associated with HTA, 1 1% cases of digestive pathology (chronic gastritis, hepato-biliary pathology). Conclusions:The flexible dentures observe these criteria better than those of conventional acrylate. The implied patients prefer flexible acrylate at a rate of 100
